Trump administration to reassign ICE officials in bid to intensify deportation campaign

Amid frustration over arrest and deportation totals, the Trump administration is planning a sweeping shake‑up at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, reassigning roughly a dozen local leaders and affecting about half of ICE’s 25 field offices, sources told CBS News. Some positions may be filled by current or former Customs and Border Protection officials, and some ICE leaders have already been notified. The overhaul follows Border Patrol operations in cities like Chicago and Los Angeles that drew local backlash, and comes as ICE averages about 900 arrests a day — below the 3,000‑a‑day minimum Stephen Miller suggested.
